Original Abstract Submitted

An approach for adjusting an inclination angle and a raindrop impact angle of a solar panel to maximize power output. The approach predicts an impact angle of a plurality of raindrops on an inclined solar panel. The approach predicts solar irradiance striking the inclined solar panel. The approach calculates an optimal solar panel inclination angle and an optimal solar panel radial angle based on maximizing power output. The approach adjusts the solar panel inclination angle and solar panel radial angle based on the optimal solar panel inclination angle and an optimal solar panel radial angle.
